It's a Wonderful Christmas Day!

Christmas Eve 2023

This seemed very appropriate. 😉

Enjoying the Platts Christmas Eve tradition of singing by an open fire and enjoying smores! It was a lovely evening.

Such lovely Christmas decorations!

And something for Santa and the reindeer.

"Sleep well little children wherever you are...

♫♪♫♪♫

Tomorrow is Christmas beneath every star!"

♪♫♪♫♪

"Soon you'll hear the bells ring, time for dreams to come true,

As the world waits to bring Merry Christmas to you!"

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Grandpa gets the good stuff!

Oh.. the new video fitness and other electronic games were a hit!

It may be 85° outside, but by gosh Hillary is going to wear her Ugly Christmas Sweater!

The Monkeys enjoyed Christmas Day too. They're just like humans, they ate and now it's time for a nap.

We had several days where we enjoyed playing with all of our Christmas gifts and Grandpa built a set of steps in the front wall. But the day came to take Grandpa to the airport. He has a very important trip coming up.

🌍🌍🌍

Hillary and I took him to San Jose', and on the way home we stopped in the mountains at the Butterfly Pavilion and gardens for lunch.

It was a nice break during our 4 hour drive.

I'm a beautiful Flutterby!

She's a pretty cute Butterfly too!

The boys filling in dirt around Grandpa's new steps.

Grandma felt the need to take the boys for some ice cream.

NEW YEARS EVE!
